#Caution

#Omitting a Forward slash (/) when the entry is continued to the next

#line, can cause the interruption of the booting process or the

#incorrect image file to download. Always include forward slashes

#where needed.

#

#Important Note:

#If a leading zero (0) is used in the IP address it is calculated as an

#octal number. If the leading character is "x" (upper or lower case),

#it is calculated as a hexadecimal number. For example, if an IP address

#with a base 10 number of 45 is written as .045 in the BOOTPTAB.TXT file,

#the Bootp protocol assigns .037 to the client.

#

#Global entries are defined that specify the parameters used by every device.

#Note that hardware type (ht) is specified first in the global entry.

#

#The following global entry is defined for an Ethernet device. Note that this

#is where a client's subnet mask (sm) and default gateway (gw) are defined.
